This could be achieved with a package property, maybe. I=E2=80=99d like this to not block version 1 of the policy though. >> if during one month nobody steps in to carry out the update, that is >> telling. > > I don't know on which time scales other Guix users live, but for me, one > month is the average delay between two "guix pull". In other words, one > month is my notion of "immediately" when it comes to Guix. Agreed. Ludo=E2=80=99.
